About Us
Resa’s Pieces is a diverse group of amateur musicians who range in age from their twenties to their nineties, and who come from all over the Greater Toronto Area. Resa’s Pieces was formed by Toronto musician Resa Kochberg who had a dream to create an encouraging, supportive and fun environment for adults to “Reawaken that Talent ~ Rediscover making Music.”
Resa's Pieces Concert Band, conducted by Resa, Resa's Pieces String Ensemble, conducted by Phillip Coonce and Resa’s Pieces Singers, conducted by Robert Graham are all guided by the mantra, "do your best and have FUN".
No matter what musical group members belong to, the one common denominator is a wonderful sense of accomplishment!
The ongoing success and uniqueness of Resa’s Pieces can be accredited to the enthusiasm and commitment of the Board of Directors, our esteemed conductors and staff, all of the “Pieces”, and the continuing devotion of the one and only Resa.
